15  |   asdv    | 1@gs.a | 11
16  |   sdfgx   | 6@hs.a | 8

…

Table2: characters

561     |   11  | asda | 945    | 12

My Tested Querys:

 SELECT id FROM accounts WHERE refer='11'

to identify the accounts was refer with value ’11’
and second query to show and sum totaltime of accounts characters where was have refer with value 11 :

SELECT a.account, a.email, SUM(c.time) , c.rank
FROM accounts a, characters c
WHERE a.id=c.account
ORDER BY MAX(c.rank) DESC

Whats i want:
I want to combine the above two query two one and have a result like below :
rank column is highest rank of character from account and totaltime is sum of all characters time of that account

Account | Email | Rank | TotalTime
gasd    |4@ds.a | 456  | 33
xcsxs   |3@ss.a | 789  | 41
cbasd   |2@as.a |  0   | 0
asdv    |1@gs.a | 456  | 13

second query with SUM I think have problem , I add it now .

Answer 1

try this

    SELECT a.account, a.email,  c.rank,SUM(c.time) totaltime
    FROM accounts a
    INNER JOIN characters c
    ON a.id = c.account

    WHERE a.refer=11
    ORDER BY MAX(c.rank) DESC

edit :

   SELECT a.account, a.email,  MAX(c.rank) rank,SUM(c.time) totaltime
    FROM accounts a
     left JOIN characters c
    ON a.id = c.account

    WHERE a.refer=11
  group by a.account
   ORDER BY MAX(c.rank) DESC
